Sprout eliminates GamerLegion from Snow Sweet Snow
An outstanding performance by Fritz “slaxz-“ Dietrich on the decider led Sprout to victory and survival at Snow Sweet Snow 1.
In the swiss round 3 of the $68.000 tournament, teams with a 0-2 record are set to face each other in an elimination match.
In the first game of the day, Sprout took down GamerLegion and managed to survive in the tournament, bouncing back from a loss on the opener of Mirage that fell in the hands of their opponent. Sprout kept fighting and pulled the reverse card on their own map pick of Nuke to take the game to the decider which saw the German-side come out on top.
Mirage: 10-16 | Alfred “RuStY” Karlsson (GL) – 1.38 rating | 105.3 ADR | 23-16 K/D
Nuke: 16-13 | Sean “era” Knutsson (GL) – 1.46 rating | 90.4 ADR | 28-17 K/D
Train: 16-13 | Fritz “slaxz-“ Dietrich (Sprout) – 1.54 rating | 90.2 ADR | 26-13 K/D
Even though the Swedish duo from GamerLegion performed well on the first two maps, it wasn’t enough to push their team in the closing rounds to survive.
